2. Travel funding for New Mexico Researchers

New Mexico NASA EPSCoR offers funding for travel opportunities to encourage faculty to explore and develop connections and collaborations with NASA researchers at Centers and other NASA supported research facilities. The purpose of the travel is to explore potential collaborations with NASA researchers for research efforts and funding opportunities. Both short and medium length (1-2 weeks) Center visits will be supported. If arrangements can be made, faculty are urged to present research progress and findings in formal presentations to interested personnel during NASA Center visits.
